EVADING THE SUNDAY LAW.
Mayor Denny Gives Michel, of the Union
Club, Work-House Sentence

Mayor Denny yesterday heavily fined Chris
Michel for selling beer on Sunday, and in addi-
ton gave him work-house sentence of five days.
The beer, defendant claimed, was sold to mem
bers Of the Union Social Club an organization
with the alleged purpose of pursuing literary
studies. In giving his decision the Mayor said:
The two prosecutions against the defendant
are Tor selling beer to certain persons whose
names are unknown to the prosecuting witness,
on Sunday last.
Without going into statement of the evil
dence at length, deem it sufficient to say. in
general way, that it has entirely convinced me
that the ssociety called the Social Club by vr-
tue of which the defendant claims he is protect
ed, was not, in fact. organized for social and
literary purposes as set forth in It's so-called
constitution. The meetings are held on Sunday,
IN small room used as a dining room immedi-
ately adjoining the defendants bar.room. On
last Sunday the meeting lasted from 10
o'clock in the morning until o'clock
at night, at least. How much earlier than 10
o'clock tho members OF the club assembled the
evidence does not show, and how much later
than o'clock the meeting would have lasted,
mad not the police interfered, cannot of course,
tell At least three kegs of beer, with smaller
quantities OF wine, whisky. ginger ale, etc., had
been provided by the defendant for the days
consumption. When members drank, they de-
posted the pay for the same in q box placed on
a table near by. at which the wife of the de-
PENDANT sat, for the purpose of seeing that none
drank who did not pay. At least some persons
visited the room who were not members of the
club. either nominally or otherwise. The de-
fendent was the treasurer of the so-called club,
and received the.pay for the liquors sold. The
State proved the sales, as set forth in the Aft
davits
ION the whole, am satisfied the club was
not organized for either literary or ordinary
social purposes, but that its main object is to
ind pretext for violating the Sunday law for
the special benefit of the defendant, himself.
$50 far as the club features of the cases are
concerned, the defendant does not present so
strong defense as did the defendant in the
Marmont case. reported in 4S Ind, page 81; for
there1 the club had various benevolent features
connected with it. But i'll that the Su-
preme Court held the defendant guilty, where
he occupied precisely the same relation to the
society that the defendant in these cases does,
and the sales were made in exactly the same
way"
On these grounds the Mayor assessed a fine of
$40 aud costs in the first case, and $25 and costs
and five days in the work house in the second
The attorneys for Michel gave notice that they
would take an appeal 1t is the second work
house sentence the Mayor has imposed in trials
of this kind. The first victim was Charles
Polster. whose appealed case is now pending in
the Criminal Court.

GRAND OPERA HoUSE-ABBOTT OPERA COMPANY.
large audience greeted the Emma Abbott
Opera Company, at the Grand Opera house, last
light and as has been the case, without excep-
ton, since the company made its first appear
ance in Indianapolis, years ago, the attendance
was deserved. Although Miss Abbott cannot be
said to be truly great singer, and makes no
pretense of giving magnificent production of
English opera. the performances given in her
name are usually OF high order and of a
character we'll calculated to please the public
TIE voice Of the star is now heard to better adj
vantage than ever. having kept pace with the
very apparent increase in avoirdupos, and the
company chosen to second her efforts is fully as
good as any that has yet appeared with her.
Miss Abbotts voice is pure, sweet and sympa-
thetic, and infallibly awakeus q svmpa-
thetic feeling on the part of he- audiences.
She is tireless worker, conscientious art
list, and has established herself in the public
heart beyond the reach of criticism. To class
her with the greater singers would be undo
served; to say that she fails to please would be
equally false and unjust. for that she does to a
wonderful degree. In ''Trovatore' she is afford
ed suitable field to display her powers, the music
being Of a character best suited TO her vocal
capacity, and the opera was thoroughly enjoyed.
Her support is good. Miss Lizzie Annandale is a
contralto singer with few equals, and is tower
OF strength to the company. Her voice is full,
rich, and of excellent quality. and her singing,
as Azucena, was feature of the performance.
Montegriffo has an excellent tenor voice, and
sings with good effect, and Mr.. Pruette made a
good impression the Count di Luna. Marie
Hindle, William Broderick and tie other prin-
cpals did well, and the choruses, costuminR,
orchestra, ETC., were equal to the character OF
the performance
Donizetti's grand opera, "Lucretia Borgia,"
which is new to this city, will DO given by Miss
Abbott and her company tonight and the ad-
vance sale indicates large audience. This opera
is counted the best in the Abbott repertoire.
While the story is heavy and tragic. the music is
bright and fascinating. The leading parts are
assumed by Miss Abbott, Miss Annandale the
dashng tenor, Michelena, Mr. Pruette, and Mr..
Bro6erick. MISS Abbott wears beautiful cos
